On August 31, 2017, 61-year-old Robin Bauer Melendez was shot and killed at a residence on the 6800 block of Fallona Avenue in Las Vegas. Police were called about 9:10 a.m.; Melendez was found with a single gunshot wound, taken to University Medical Center and pronounced dead around 10 a.m.

Investigators say the shooting was accidental and involved Melendez’s 19-year-old grandson. He was reportedly attempting to clear a handgun in one room when it discharged, the bullet passing through two rooms and striking Melendez while she slept in another room. Four other family members lived in the house and were not harmed. The firearm was to be tested and the matter reviewed by the Clark County district attorney’s office; no arrests were made and the grandson was cooperating and described as very distraught.

Does anyone have information about the household layout or room locations that might clarify how the shot traveled through the home?
